Episode 10: Octopuses And The Fear They Deserve

Sun, 01 Jul 2018 05:01:03 +0000

Octopuses, octopodes, and potentially even octopi, are they lovable creatures that only want hugs?
No, not even close. Instead, they are horrifying beasts equipped with all manner of deadly features. So today, on this episode, we will go into depth about everything you need to know to survive the upcoming octopus invasion apocalypse, that has a statistically non-zero likelihood of happening at any moment.

Our sponsor this week is a brand new babysitting initiative. Tune in to find out more.

Also, in an unsurprising derailment, we talk about why scientists are the best at naming things.

So join us cultists, because we all here at the Cult of Knowledge, need you to survive.

Episode 2: Cider

Thu, 01 Mar 2018 03:00:00 +0000

In this episode we all learn an interesting and odd list of things, most of which have at least a passing correlation to cider.

Also, unfortunately there are a couple strange audio issues in this episode. Due to my current recording set-up, if it gets taken apart, it is just shy of impossible to get the exact same audio quality. This can be quite jarring, which is why there are a couple strange audio quirks in this episode. The producers are not happy.

Episode 1: One Electron Universe Theory

In this episode we learn about the implications of one electron universe theory.

Also probably more importantly, I try out a podcasting style. Let me know what you all think.
